Furnifoid M. Simmons
United States Senator Furaifold
McLendel Simmons of North Carolina
was born in Jones county, N. C., on
January 20, 1854. He was a graduate
of Trinity College in 1873 and after.
wards studied law, being admitted to
the bar in 1875. He soon gained
a lucrative practice and entered poli-
tics, in which he was immediately
successful. He served one term in
congress from 1887 until 1889. He
was next made an internal revenue
collector and held this post from 1893
until 189G. His position in the public
eye has grown so that in 1901 be was
elected to the senate with little or no
opposition.
Secrecy in the transmission of tele-
graph dispatches in China is to be in-
sured in the future by a provision for
the decapitation of all offenders re-
vealing the contents of important mes-
sages in transit. In the case of or-
dinary messages of commerce thus re-
vealed the penalty is to be ten years
in prison. Five years' imprisonment
is provided for those who know of
the revelation of such secrets and
neglect to report the matter to the
proper authorities.

Rev. Frederick T. Gates, at , one
time pastor of a Baptist church which
John D. Rockefeller attended, is now
almoner for the Standard Oil magnate,
and has reduced that gentleman's
charities to a system. Always attired
in an up-to-date business suit, of man-
ner brisk and incisive, Mr. Gates is
close-mouthed regarding such of his
employer's benefactions as do not ap-
pear in the newspapers.
A Pittsburg millionaire has estab-
lished a chicken farm on a tract of
nine acres of land in the residence dis-
trict of that city, his purpose being to
provide his family with fresh eggs
and tender chickens. The land is
valued at $450,000, which seems to be
rather an extravagant outlay for eggs,
even for a Pittsburger.
Germany may not agree with the
German government about disarming.
There was never another exampl#
such as Germany affords of a mighty
military power which is not naturally
a warlike nation. The German loves
perfce, but no one Is better prepared
or better able to fight.
Mine. Alice Guibel de la Ruelle, in-
spector of labor In Paris, has started
an agitation to obtain seats for the
300,000 women employed in the vari-
ous industries of France. As the pres-
ent law stands only women in shops
are given seats.
Every male in Russia over 15 years
old smokes about 150 cigarettes a
week, according to a British consulai
report on Poland and Lithuania. One
pound of tobacco suffices for 1,000 clg
arettes.
A Baltimore paper says we spend
over $2,000,000 a year on baseball.
Wtrrth it, too. Think of the returns in
good health, physical training and rec-
reation.

Point Loma. Cal., recently picked up a

amendment to the original complaint,
This is the second amendment and
will specify a particular charge on
which to start trial, and the plaintiff
will be allowed to go back three years
in the trial. Attorney for the plain-
tiffs feel very optimistic over the de.
cision on the demurrer and feel con-
fident of satisfying the instructions of
the court in specifying the charge
Court reconvened at 3:20 o'clock
this afternoon. Judge Burwell
once called a jury, but 25 of the 44
veniremen being in attendance
court. The prospective jurors were
instructed not to discuss the case and
were then dismissed until needed.
The amended petition of the plain-
tiffs was then submitted, and the de
fendant was arraigned. But one of
the particular charges was read, the
hearing of the others being waived
The defense asked 15 minutes in
which to review the amended petition
and prepare their answer, and are
still out at 4 o'clock .
It now appears that the case will
be tried. The maximum penalty
which might be applied upon convic-
tion is removal from office and a fine
of $4,500, and the minimum is removal
from office and a fine of $450.
The chief of the park police of
Cleveland, O., wants notice of the
first proposals of marriage in the city
parkB this spring. He has something
nice for a present for the first bride of
the summer whose wedding is the
outcome of a proposal in the parks.
How much wiser and more humane
this than turning the searchlight on
the secluded benches or in establish-
ing a corps of park "chaperons'* for
the express purpose of checking love's
young dream!
It l« considered a good omen that
the future king of Spain set up a howl
during the christening ceremonies.
Spaniards have noticed that royal in-
fants who cry at that time have long
and prosperous reigns. If that is the
case, one would suppose that the royal
father who had the happiness of his
son at heart would slyly slip a pin
under the royal undershirt of the kid
so that the latter would be sure to pro-
duce the desired noise at the right
moment.
Even If corporations have no souls,
they are sometimes curiously involved
with spiritual problems. The work of
the Pennsylvania railroad In New York
city Involved the destruction of St. Mi-
chael's church. According to contract,
the railroad company has built on a
new site a reproduction of the old
church. The memorial windows and
the facade have been moved bodily
and incorporated In the new structure.
The Washington youth who has
been giving the government trouble
by Intercepting wireless messages in a

We know you are busy, but wait a minute! We
want to tell you about the greatest mattress we
have ever offered to the public.
SEALY MATTRESSES are made of Long-
Staple Cotton, no tufting, tacking or binding.
Why? Because the grade of cotton used in the
Sealy stays together without tufts. Each Sealy
Mattress is guaranteed, not only 30 or 60 days,
but 10 to 20 years. Can you buy any other mat-
tress with such a guarantee?
A customer recently said to us, when asked if
he needed a good mattress: "You haven't a mat-
tress in your house as good as one I have had for
eight years--! have the Sealy, and it is the best
mattress I ever slept on."
Prices very little more than the cheap felts
which are made of linters.

Very few men are shaped alike.
Their forms may look alike, but ac-
tual measurement will show many dis-

"ready made." In constructing clothes
we always build to suit, noting evary
peculiarity in a man's shape and allow.
